Thats why he needs some buffs to fight on open space areas
Is he supposed to be effective in the open space though? I think if you look at each legend individually and compare how effective they are in specific areas you're going to start to question whether Mirage and Wraith should be buffed because they aren't as good as Caustic when inside buildings.
Match Caustic up with Bangalore to provide smoke when you're running outside of buildings or pop Gibraltar's shield if a team opens fire on you. There's options available when you look how legends stack up as a team. If you happen to die in open space as Caustic, couldn't you just say it was a case of being the wrong place at the wrong time? It happens.
Try matching up Caustic with Bangalore and Wattson. Stay inside buildings and play defensive by throwing down electrified fences, variables, and smoke it out so enemies have a tough time seeing the variables or ability to shoot the fences.
Stats don't lie, weak legends has less people playing it, as today, Gibby and Caustic still the least favorite legend in the game.
- @asukojo Not entirely true. There's a fashion created by streamers which greatly influences this. Most people aren't prepared to do much thinking, and even when they do they'll not publicly contradict someone with a popular opinion. I've got friends who wreck with the fatties (mainly Gibraltar, admittedly) but caustic complements someone like wattson MASSIVELY.
